Turkey Ball Champs!

Lakan/UNC aka Arstars lol
LEGIT
This past weekend, this random squad got together and came out on top for the 4th Annual Turkey Ball basketball tournament. Darwin Garcia, Scruff, and I organized a last minute squad and all the stress didn't go to waste! From the first tip-off, LakUnc seemed to gel right away and cruised to 3 double-digit victories against 3 of the top teams of Toronto: Durham, Vaughan, and the Saints. Sunday afternoon saw LakUnc faceoff against a TO powerhouse, Falcons in the finals.. we prevailed.
Splash to Darwin aka Pin n Spin and Scruff for handling the organization.. and of course the rest of the players, JMac (assistant coach/"the voice"), Neil Nacita aka Mr. Comeback, the bruisers: Mark De Castro and Geoff Malana, the secret weapon Clint Villardo, Prince Ramirez who is in the pic but was on the IR list for the tournament, the speedsters: Nathan Momongan and Jon Erfe, Nick G aka the Vet, and Matthew Wright.. the smooth operator. This team brought major "intense city" and was a great combination of talent of player 1-11. I was personally impressed with the chemistry, and was extremely proud to be part of a championship team again! The knees didn't feel TOO old this weekend.
Also a splash to the fan support. All the family and friends of the team! Darlene, for being the #1 support. And I can't remember the last time I had my whole family watching a game of mine! SICK! And of course, Jayden.. who was hugging every little girl he seen.
This weekend, 25 for Life is holding a TO Cream of the Crop tournament, where the winner plays the Ex-PBA squad that's touring the country this month. Should be exciting! Lakan UNC will be joining the Durham squad but will unfortunately be missing pieces on both days.
Hopefully, we'll still be strong enough to pull off some upsets.
I'll keep you informed..
